Even if that guy wasn't a 'rapist' per say...


... and he still say physically attacked and spoke this dirtily to his female victim, I would still be incredibly shocked, appalled, disgusted and offended by his actions, especially all those "references" in a very derogatory way he made about a woman's particular body part etc. That dialogue alone shocked me.

And if I was to witness it I personally feel like I would've intervened. Seriously, the de-facto prejudice and downright hatred that some people have and feel like that for others, my heart weeps.

But I think that with such dialogue, both literally and figuratively, the movie sort of intended to say, besides being de-facto wrong and illegal of course as well as utterly immoral and inexcusable, and other more severe words albeit in civilized language, and besides being "it" of course via dictionary definition as well, just how downright dirty, despicable and nasty such individual perpetrators are overall.
